Conference call with a Polycom SoundStation EX

We have a Polycom SoundStation EX in our boardroom, and nobody knows how to use it for a conference call. Whoever was in charge of admin when it was purchase didnt file the guides which came with it, and the two guides I can see on the Polycom website arent helping. Can anyone tell me how to make a conference call using this machine? Or point me in the right dirrection? Thankyou,

    We have a polycom soundstation premier ex - the owner's manual has vanished from our office. We know how to call one person, but would like to know whether and how we can include two people at two separate numbers using the polycom soundstation premier ex. Thanks.

The conferencing capability to bridge 2 (or more) external stations comes from the telephone equipment/service that you have purchased. Either you are behind a PABX or Electronic KSU, which provides multiple phone service to your office, or you purchase conferencing capability from your local telephone provider (Verizon, AT&T, etc). In either case, the way to initiate a conference call would be the same as when you would have a desktop/office phone and establish a conference/bridged call to external parties. Usually this occurs by having one party on the line, flashing the disconnect button momentarily, getting a new dial tone, dialing and connecting to a second party, then flashing the disconnect button again, which signals the equipment to bridge those two calls to your station.  On the SoundStation EX there is a Flash button that provides that capability of momentarily flashing the disconnect button.  Try and see if that works. If not, then you will need to make arrangements to purchase the external equipment or service from your provider.  If you have the PABX or electronic KSU, it may also be a configuration option that you will need to have your support person for your telephone system, activate for that station connected to the SoundStation EX. Hope that helps.

On our system, you press flash, dial the third party, then press flash, #, 8 to connect all three calls together. You could try that and see if it works on your system.

Can anyone tell me how to place a conference call using the Polycom SoundStation2 when both calls are incoming? I am able to place an incoming call on hold and dial another number and conference them...

No it can't. One call at least must be dialed out to. Try using a conference bridge service if you want to have multiple parties call in to you. Then you and all guests only need to call bridge number which is usually toll free.

We have an old polycom sound station which is not wireless and does not have the screen. We need to conference with 2 people. I know we can do it with the soundstation 2w but can we do it with the old...

It would depend on if this is going through the phone system, or just a phone line all by itself.

If on the phone system, there should be a conference button, that is like a "flash" button on your home phone.....

Usin for an internet conference

You need to buy a Computer Calling Kit from Polycom. That is essentially a cable with a 2.5mm connector to the Polycom Soundstation 2W on one end and two 3.5 mm connectors to the PC Sound card end (one to the Microphone port and the other to the Speakers port).
